menu icon change

[ward duncan]

I am in the process of setting up LXDE as my default DE for Ubuntu and I would like to change the menu icon from the default LXDE icon to the ubuntu icon. How would I go about doing this?

If you're using lxpanel 4.x, then you just have to press the right button of the mouse in the menu and click in the first option. Choose your image and all done.

The other way is change manually.
Choose that text editor that you like and open the file "~/.config/lxpanel/LXDE/panels/panel"
You'll see something like that:

Code: Select all

Plugin {
    type = menu
    Config {
        image=/home/phillipe/.config/lxpanel/images/startbutton.png
        system {
        }

Just alter the the line where you see "image=...."

I was able to change the image that it uses but now the menu button is not functional. All that I get is an option to log out and the ability to run a command, something like alt-F2. Is there someplace else that I need to make a setting change?

This occurred to me once and all that I did was:

$ rm -f ~/.cache/menus/*
$ lxpanelctl restart
